--- By J. L. S.
From wiki, "Dawkins":
"In the 2007 TV documentary The Enemies of Reason,[137] Dawkins discusses what he sees as the dangers of abandoning critical thought and rationale based upon scientific evidence. He specifically cites astrology".

Oddly, in a paper that credits me (for general discussion, or something), Uschanov (google.books, "[C]riticisms of ... ordinary language philosophy" (Routledge), quotes for good effect Grice WoW:180 on astrology:
Words:
"To complain that philosophy no longer
solves practical problems is
as idiotic
as to complain that
astronomy is the natural offspring
of astrology -- that our future is
in the stars." Or something.
